Learning outcomes
|
The aim of this course is to introduce students to the issue of the mediality of theatrical and cultural performances from the beginnings of Euro-American cultural history to the end of the twentieth century. The course builds on the subjects Staging and Production of Performances in History (Spring Semester) and Theatre and Society in History (Spring Semester).
Upon completing the course, the student will understand theatre as a medium and its specific mediality, including fundamental paradigms such as mimesis, poiesis, catharsis, and aisthesis. They will gain insight into the relationship between staged drama and social drama. The student will also grasp media theories concerning theatre as both a medium and an environment, as well as aesthetic and cultural concepts of intermediality, including embodiment and the phenomenon of liveness within the evolving media landscape.
